confussed… can sperm cause a vaginal infection?

my vagina itches extemely, it is red and a little bit swollen. Can you get some type of infection if after you have sex, there is still some remaining sperm in and on your vagina. because i had sex last night and this morning there was still some sperm left. Can that lead to an infection? Are you supposed to clean after you have sex. This has never happened to me before, and i am in alot of pain right now.

An eight-year vaginosis sufferer myself, I will show you how I cured my bacterial vaginosis in three days the natural way and helped thousands of women do the same.

I'm about to reveal to you, scientifically-proven secrets that cured my bacteria vaginosis in three days, without any harsh prescription drugs or the never-ending cycle
expense of over-the-counter products that don't work, and how it changed my life forever.

no sperm can not infect you or an area that it touches…. but diseases can.. go get urself checked out by a clinic or doc… it could just be an irritation.. or it could very well be something else… go asap

Honey, It sounds like you have a yeast infection. One of the best ways to avoid this is to wash after sex however it does help if you pee after sex. Sounds strange I know, but I am prone to bladder infections and my Dr. told me to at least pee after sex. Help flush fluids away.
Good luck with that … And do not have sex till you get it taken care of – as a yeast infection (should it be that ) can spread to men.

sperm does not cause infection. Bacteria from penis during intercourse will. If you don't have sex often your body has to adjust to the addition of bacteria from outside sources. ie fingers, penis, act.

Wow!! well one thing i can tell you is yes its best to clean up after sex. and as for your itching and swelling that sounds like a rash i would go see a GYN ASAP!! you want to know exactly what it is rather then sit around and not know..

YES you should always clean yourself after having sex…but that aside, you could be very allergic to your guy's sperm…you didn't say if you are married or not, but practicing safe sex is always best whether married or not…there are all kinds of stds out there…so be very careful about your body…please take all precautions to stay healthy…
